I can't explain how angry this makes me
Someone should have procured a rope and strung the driver of the truck up from the nearest tree. I can't even fathom how this could happen. As a biker, I am infuriated.

That is horrible.
New Hampshire is full of two-lane roads, each with incredible scenery. Such a shame that these bikers got taken out while enjoying the fresh clean air and great scenery. |

The guy driving the truck had to have crossed over into their lane. Same thing happened here almost in front of my house. We heard it, but didn’t see it. Seven bikes taken out. No one died, but one gal lost her leg.
I read a second ago that the MA bike group had ties to the Marines. So did the group here that it happened to. |

It would be helpful if they find that one or more of the bikers had a camera running. |

Very large and heavy trailer for a 250. A blowout on the truck or trailer could do some bad things.

And yes this state is full of two lanes and some are scary especially at night RT.125 between Rochester and the Lee traffic circle always has me favoring the breakdown lane as people tend to cross or hug the centerline more then my liking. |

I used to love traveling 125 on the bike, but traffic has gotten ridiculous in the past 10 or so years. Plus, they really messed up the circle. I hate what they have done with the Lee traffic circle. I have had numerous near misses there now since it's been "improved", and have seen a number of accidents. For some reason, people feel they don't need to yield going into anymore, it's crazy

Regardless of who is at fault, it's a terrible tragedy. Two of the seven were husband and wife. I ride myself, I try to keep "situation awareness" at all times but sometimes things get beyond your control |
